Stunning." —Time Magazine “We were all heading for each other on a collision course, no matter what. Maybe some people are just meant to be in the same story.” At first, Jude and her twin brother are NoahandJude; inseparable. Noah draws constantly and is falling in love with the charismatic boy next door, while daredevil Jude wears red-red lipstick, cliff-dives, and does all the talking for both of them. Years later, they are barely speaking. Something has happened to change the twins in different yet equally devastating ways . . . but then Jude meets an intriguing, irresistible boy and a mysterious new mentor. The early years are Noah’s to tell; the later years are Jude’s. But they each have only half the story, and if they can only find their way back to one another, they’ll have a chance to remake their world. From the acclaimed author of The Sky Is Everywhere, this exhilarating novel will leave you breathless and teary and laughing—often all at once.

    • Lena si immerge nella sua pittura ed è travolta da un appassionante flirt estivo, ma nella sua mente e nel suo cuore l'immagine di Kostos (e la paura di incontrarlo di nuovo) è sempre vivissima. Carmen è affascinata da una sofisticata compagna di college per cui il teatro è tutto e i Pantaloni Viaggianti sono solo una sciocchezza. Bridget si unisce a un gruppo archeologico al lavoro in Turchia e scopre che il professore-guida è molto disponibile in tutto, tranne che per una cosa. Tibby si lascia alle spalle il ragazzo che ama, convinta (ma sbagliando) che lui l'aspetterà. L'ultimo capitolo di una serie di successo.

      Emma - I know it sounds crazy. You (and Mum!) will be wondering where I've been disappearing to, and when I'll be back. That's why I'm leaving you all this evidence - in case something happens and I DON'T come back. Look at everything in my book. Call the phone numbers. Check out the websites. But, you can't tell ANYBODY about it, unless you want to end up in over your head, like me. But don't worry, I'll be OK (I think). Hey, maybe this is the beginning of a new life for me. For sure it's the end of the old one. Call me. Love, Cathy This book reaches beyond the written word to interact with teenage girls in ways they are quite familiar with in other areas of their lives. From instant-messaging to text-messaging, from surfing the web to having their own sites, the age-old story of 'boy dumps girl and girl wins boy back' is lifted from the page to our three-dimensional, 21st-century world.
